OPUN MIC NIGHT is a gathering of creatives to discover the fun of punning-on-demand, improv, writing, and sharing work, and meeting other like-minds in a casual, 'low-stakes' environment.
This free community event on the first Friday at 5:30 at ColdTowne is about having fun, not (necessarily) being funny!
Our theme for MAY is ROOTS!
Branch out and try out new exercises and games that will support you in your creative growth.
Optional Dress Code: Floral patterns and garden party inspiration.
Hairstyle notes: If you let your highlights grow out a little, we’re into that :)
Thanks to our beverage sponsor, Rambler, for keeping us hydrated as we ramble on :)
The vibes might be good, but the puns will be unbeleafable.
